Seasonal oceanographic phenomenon promotes hitchhiking among the plankton in a coastal marine ecosystem: A tropical perspective

Seasonal oceanographic phenomenon promotes hitchhiking among the plankton in a coastal marine ecosystem: A tropical perspective

Epibiosis among plankton communities and the role of environmental forcing therein are discussed in this study. We hypothesized that a sub-surface thermal inversion phenomenon and associated hydrographical changes during winter monsoon promoted group/species-specific epibiosis among the plankton in...
